ho-kay guys, here's an easy question that I'm sure is obvious, BUT i don't know the answer.

I'm playing a cleric for our next D&D game. So, I was reading the cleric section and all his spells and i noticed that all healing spells in, well in my book anyway, don't have a ranged increment.

I considered that no ranged increment simply implied a touch spell. But upon further reading i noticed other spells state whether or not the are touch or ranged in the ranged section of the spell.

So here's my question. Are healing spells touch oriented OR are healing spells ranged and this is a typo.

Thanks in advance!

When laying your hand upon a living creature, you channel positive energy that cures 1d8 points of damage +1 point per caster level (maximum +5).

I think your book may be broken.

No problem. However, upon further inspection it appears that the range description only appears in the CLW entry and not in any of the other Cure spells. Could that be the issue you're having?
